Even though the Queens Blvd & the Metropolitan Avenue stations on the old end of the Jamaica Avenue El closed on 4/15/1985, the El structure along with the 2 stations got demolished in fall 1990/early 1991. The old end of the structure got disconnected from the rest of Jamaica Avenue El in 1985, when the then-new ramp to the Archer Avenue Subway was being built. I remember when the El structure was being taken down over the LIRR, and there was no service on the LIRR that weekend in early 1991. The old end of the Jamaica Avenue El was still up, when I walked under it in 1989.
